10/10 would recommend

This is the third series that mangaka Takagi, Tsuyoshi has worked on. The art is beutiful and the story is executed well with smooth pacing.

This series is complete with 5 volumes and is considered a light read in my book. Any fans of the shounen genre or anyone wanting to try out the shounen genre, this is a great series to add to your collection.
